Elio Ervin

Elio stewards national partnerships for 826—pairing donor-centered hustle with heart so every student’s voice is heard. They bring deep experience in tech sales and start ups, a love of writing and music, and a willingness to strike up a conversation with anyone about the mission and impact of 826 National. They are passionate about amplifying young voices, building inclusive communities, and designing memorable, student-centered experiences that connect supporters to impact. When they’re not mapping cultivation paths, you’ll likely find them on a long walk, cheering on student publications, or convincing friends that karaoke absolutely counts as a performing art.
